  • USS Raging Queen is a vessel with a very similar design to the Curry-type. It may be another of that variant, but with subtle differences due to manufacturing of the vessel - i.e. slightly different parts used. It is unclear if this vessel is a Curry-type, or another type designation altogether.

Background

This odd ship was created by Dan Curry (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine VFX staff), for whom the first vessel seen on screen was named. The vessel has been given the non-canon designation Shelley-class by fans on the Internet, after the author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, a reference to the fact that, like the creature in Shelley's story, the Shelley-class are a gruesome collection of various part that were never meant to fit together.

There is also speculation that this ship class is meant to be a Marine troop transport, given its forward mounted shuttlebay (which would make it easy for troops to egress the ship while being deployed) and secondary hull (which could be a detachable troop barracks).
